Feanorians are bad for your health

"Fucking hell!" Is the first thing Daeron says coming back to life, largely because it's what he would have said if Caranthir's sword hadn't gone through his vocal cords. As is, he comes back sprawled in the woods, feeling absolutely wretched and even more sore. His neck hurts. His body feels like it's been manhandled (which, thinking about it, it

There's a Galadriel around if Daeron wants to talk to her. She's not in the woods, though, barely at the entrance of a clearing, picking athelas.

[ofdoriath]

"Caranthir. Who else?"

[lorien_gal]

"I see." She's completely expressionless.

[ofdoriath]

"Indeed. And how have you been?"

[lorien_gal]

"Better than you have, at any rate." Beside, why would you care? "But tell me your side of the story," she says, still grave.

She may or may not have heard another side of it.

He leans against a tree. "Simple enough. I was - out with an Edain woman for the evening, had the misfortune to run into Caranthir, who abruptly made good on what he's been threatening to do and killed me, after a bit of waffling. He did try to get the lady to leave, to his credit."
